Trust Services

  • Background
The UB Trust Division of Union Bank & Trust Company was established with the specific purpose of providing Trustee and Custody services to Employee Benefit Plans and Personal Trust services to individuals.  Because we offer the highest quality services available in the market place at the lowest possible cost, we are the fastest growing Trust operation in the Upper Midwest.

The outstanding quality and value of the services we offer has led to the formation of alliances with some of the finest providers of investment management and administration services in the country.  Through these alliances we provide Trustee services for retirement plans and individual personal trust.

UB Trust Division has designed its Personal Trust and Employee Benefit trust services to complement the investment advisory services offered by Financial Planning and Investment Advisor professionals.  Unlike most banks offering Trust and Custody services, we are not in the money management, investment advisory, or financial planning business.  This eliminates any potential for conflict of interest and allows our clients to work with their own trusted investment professionals.

Our knowledgeable and professional staff, with an average of 15 years trust experience, are dedicated to ensuring that our clients receive the finest service delivered in a competent and friendly manner.  Our state-of-the-art computer system allows us to set the highest standards for accuracy and reliability in trust accounting and reporting.

With over $6 billion in Trust assets, UB Trust Division is big enough to ensure safe and efficient service and small enough to provide the personalized service no longer available from the mega-banks.  In this day of mega-banks and mega-mergers it is also comforting to know that, because of our unique ownership, it is highly unlikely that we would ever be a merger or take-over target.

We would welcome an opportunity to provide you with more detailed information or answer any questions you might have.
